“We could not be happier with the care Ivana provided for our golden doodle, Gigi, during our week away. From the moment we connected, Ivana was incredibly responsive and caring which gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos, and it was clear that Gigi was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. Ivana treated Gigi like her own, and we truly appreciated the care and thoughtfulness she showed throughout the entire stay. Ivana provided 10/10 care, and we would absolutely trust her with Gigi again. So happy we have found her. Thank you, Ivana! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”

“Rambo had a great time staying with Mario. It was so easy for us, Mario is so friendly and was so flexible with drop off and pick up times. He sent me photographs of Rambo throughout the weekend which was really fun. I will definitely be calling Rambo the next time I go out of town!”

“Ivan was so good to Toko and Arya while I was gone! They're both small dogs who are reserved around new people and new dogs. Toko came to him with a broken foot and a bunch of built up anxiety since he couldn't exercise, while Arya has way too much energy. He was very careful to make sure Toko stayed comfortable and couldn't injure himself, but also took Arya on several long adventures. Ivan sent me many great photos and daily updates of the pups while I was on vacation, which greatly reduced my own anxiety over them staying over! I could tell they had a great time, and I won't hesitate to book Ivan again!”

“Kelly and her mom were amazing! They took such great care of our little guy during our wedding weekend. This was our first time using Rover, and we feel so lucky to have found Kelly. She sent plenty of updates throughout the weekend, and we could tell our dog, Tobi, felt right at home. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while we celebrated. We will definitely be booking with Kelly again in the future.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Pingu, my 13-year-old toy poodle. Pingu lives with my parents, so he isn’t currently in my home—but he’s still a very special part of my life. Caring for dogs brings me so much joy, and I’d love the opportunity to welcome your pup into my home! To make sure every dog receives the individual care, attention, and affection they deserve, I care for no more than two dogs at a time. I’m happy to make an exception for dogs from the same household. For everyone’s safety, all dogs must be up to date on their rabies vaccination and flea prevention. I take dogs outside at least three times a day: - Morning - Late afternoon - Before bedtime I’ll do my best to make your pup feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to tell me more about your dog and their routine. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 I work from home and plan to continue doing so for the foreseeable future, which means I’ll be home most of the day and able to give your pup plenty of attention, companionship, and care. Dogs in my care will have opportunities to relax, play, and enjoy supervised time in the yard throughout the day. I also make sure they receive regular outdoor breaks and follow their usual routines as closely as possible. I live in a single-family home with a fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor play. I’m home most of the time, so your pup will have plenty of companionship and won’t be left alone for long periods. I always keep dogs on leash when we leave the house and will follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, medications, and routines. While my neighborhood is dog-friendly, any introductions to other dogs will be handled carefully and only if your pup is comfortable and it’s appropriate for their temperament and needs. I’m committed to creating a safe, calm, and welcoming home away from home for every dog in my care!
“Ollie had the most incredible time with Leeeun and her family. She sent many lovely photos and updates, and helped us buy additional treats when we ran out. They took Ollie on so many fun adventures throughout the weekend. She goes above and beyond, and we highly recommend her!”

“Communicative and I really enjoyed seeing pictures of our pup during her stay! Stella I'm sure enjoyed all the play time and walks~ Thank you! Would love for her to stay again!”

“Catherine and her husband are so sweet and communicative! We received daily updates on Gale’s behavior and lots of cute pics! They spoiled our dog with two walks a day (I normally only give her one!) and have a fenced in yard for play. I could tell that they really cherished having our dog’s company instead of just dogsitting for the additional income. Their heart is in it for sure!”


“Stephen and his wife are by far the best dog sister on rover! Gave daily updates. I would recommend Stephen and his wife to anyone that wants peace of mind.”

“James and Jasmine are hands-down the best dog sitters we’ve ever used. They are incredibly professional and took the time to understand Toby’s specific routine and needs. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs and treated our Toby as their own. They were super reliable and kept us up to date with Toby's activities and sent us daily pix -- they truly went above and beyond to make sure Toby was comfortable and happy. We will definitely be booking them again! Thanks again guys!”


“Kitty has become Oki's new friend and family. She was excited to see us when we picked her up after 2 weeks we were away but I could tell that she really was sad to leave Kitty. Oki has returned to Kitty's since and we are so happy to have found such a loving, caring, trustworthy sitter for our baby. Thank you Kitty!”
“Anna was wonderful with my dog! She sent pictures and videos and gave me daily updates on how she was doing. I felt totally at ease while I was away. Would absolutely book again.”

“Annie is an absolutely incredible, caring pet sitter. She took our dog on wonderful excursions, sent lots of wonderful photos, and was always available to talk or text. My dog had separation anxiety and she also handled that well. You can’t go wrong with choosing her as your pet sitter.”

“Our dog Maisy was so well cared for at Diana's and Mike's house! Diana has a lot of knowledge about all kinds of dogs which is super helpful. She helped Maisy adjust and sent me regular updates. Definitely recommend!”

“Jenisa took excellent care of my Roxy and I was stress free the whole time I was gone. Roxy learned better manners and is more settled and ladylike since I have been gone. Thank you Jenisa!”

About: My priority is your dog's comfort. I will work to gain their trust and become best friends! I also have experience giving medication and brushing teeth. I am currently a substitute teacher so most days of the week and weekend I am home. My partner and I are homebodies so you can often find us snuggling with our dog Bambi. Bambi and I love to go to the dog park and hiking. Whether your dog is young or old, playful or independent, they will fit in here! I have one friendly dog Bambi that enjoys making new dog friends! Bambi is very small, 8 lbs, but he does well with dogs of all size. We usually go to the dog park several times a week so he can socialize.
“Jennifer is a sweet cat caretaker. She had multiple rooms for my cat to get comfortable in, since it took my cat a little while to come out of her shell. I loved seeing the videos of Jennifer playing with my cat.”

The median cost per night for dog boarding in North Central is $75

Mario has watched our dog Buddy several times while we are away on weekend trips or for longer overseas travel. He always takes amazing care of our dog. Mario is great at keeping us updated with lots of photos and messages.Buddy gets lots of great outdoor exercise, has lots of fun, and comes home a very happy dog. We will definitely use him again.

Ollie had the most incredible time with Leeeun and her family. She sent many lovely photos and updates, and helped us buy additional treats when we ran out. They took Ollie on so many fun adventures throughout the weekend. She goes above and beyond, and we highly recommend her!

Isabella is our favorite sitter we’ve ever had the pleasure to meet! (And we have used 15+ sitters across Rover and otherwise!) She is extremely responsible, timely, experienced with dogs, and communicative. 10/10 followed all our instructions, and went above and beyond to ask additional clarifying questions which resulted in excellent care for our two frenchies. She has experience with Brachycephalic breeds which we loved too! Isabella watched them over Labor Day weekend when we were out of town and in a last minute bind, offering helpful solutions and even helping to pick them up for boarding at her wonderful home. She asked thoughtful questions about our dogs’ behavior, walking & potty preferences, feeding habits, and sleep patterns. We felt that our dogs were getting the absolute best playtime and care with Isabella- 1000% would recommend booking with her. We did not worry AT ALL and loved the frequent check-ins and photos. Our dogs did not want to leave her home at the end of their stay… they were being really slow walking to our car and kept looking back at her 😆— sign of an amazing stay, four paws up. We love you Isabella! Thank you so much again and we will be back! ❤️

I’ve never boarded my dog, who is 4, anywhere for her entire life and avoided taking trips because I was worried about her. A situation came up where I finally had to leave town for a week and couldn’t take her with me. Kitty worked with me to have my dog make a few day visits before I left. My dog seemed happy to see Kitty when I dropped her off for the long stay. Kitty sent me daily pictures, and I saw my dog gradually relax and make friends, and after a few days she looked really happy! When I went to pick her up, she tried to drag me to the house and backyard to show me around. The peace of mind knowing that my dog was enjoying her boarding experience meant everything to me, and I’m so grateful to Kitty and Joyce for caring for her.

Lauri is the BEST! She spent time getting to know us, our dog and learned our needs. She went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt loved and comfortable during her boarding stay, sent lots of pictures and updates. Lauri is highly professional, prepared to handle any/all situations and you can really tell she loves what she does. She should get 10 stars. Thank you Lauri!!! XOXO :)

We booked Kristine for a three-week boarding stay while we were out of the country, and she was fantastic. She was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire stay, sending us regular updates and photos that gave us great peace of mind. She was also caring for other dogs and did an excellent job making sure they all got along well. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care and would highly recommend Kristine to anyone looking for boarding services.

There are some great dog sitters, and some of them also happen to be genuinely great people. That’s how we feel about Katie and Jason. Not only did they love our dog Archie and care for him like he was their own, they kept this nervous dog mama leaving her pup for the first time informed, reassured, and entertained with the frequent updates, photos and videos sharing all the fun and love Archie was having. We cannot thank Katie and Jason enough for not only being excellent caregivers, but also being exceptional humans. They are DEFINITELY our go-to from now on for any future trips we have to take without our Archie!
